What are the advantages of wormeries over composting.
Is there any significant difference in the finished product?

The big difference is between traditional, open-heap composting and
container composting. With the former, you can compost pretty well
anything that will decay - household waste, rabbit litter, prunings
(even up to 1/2" thick wood, if cut up), old down duvets etc., but
it takes longer. With the latter, you can compost only soft and
watery material, but it is quicker; wormeries are very quick, but
you have to be fairly careful what you put on.

And womeries will only deal with a limited amount of waste matter -
ok
for say kitchen peelings etc. but no good for larger amounts of
stuff.

Surely it dependa on the size of the wormery?
